The Don’t Wannas

I’ve developed a serious case of the “Don’t wannas” with all of my hybrids. I won’t call it burnout. I don’t think that’s what it is. I’m just tired of focusing on being a caster/healer or whatever hyrbrid. I want to play a pure class or two for now. Luckily I have two of those. My rogue of course, and my poor hunter who has been 80 since Early December and hasn’t been touched since then.

Maybe it sounds silly to not want to cast spells, but that’s exactly where I’m at right now. I don’t love those toons any less, I haven’t abandoned them or anything like that. I just…Don’t wanna.

It may be that I want to get to be as good with a hunter as I am with a Shadow Priest. Or maybe just want to see how well I can do as a Mutilate rogue (recently trying this spec as opposed to my much loved combat spec…thank you dual specs). Both of these require some focus. And playtime. REAL play time, in REAL situations not just blasting through standard mobs and beating up target dumbasses. I Mean dummies.

Or maybe, just maybe I want to do something I have never gotten to do before. The chance to bring only one thing to the tables. Mass Quantities of Sustained DPS. To not have a second spec that’s useful for anything else. To prove to myself I CAN be good dps, I CAN play a pure class, and I don’t HAVE to be a healer or heal offspec to be valued. To build up my skill and DPS to the point where I AM a value to whatever group I’m in. Not that my guild makes me feel this way. Not at all. I put it on myself. A character flaw, yes, even I have them.

I don’t get tons of playtime these days, with being a pseudo-single mom, trips to the post office, packing care packages, dealing with absolutely everything at home. I pretty much have to pick what I want most and focus on that. Maybe I’m selfish, but what time I do have, I really want to play the class I’m enjoying most.  The rest…I just don’t wanna.
